Ole Miss holds off Missouri in 75-71 win

COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Sebastian Saiz recorded his third-consecutive double-double, scoring 19 points to go with 10 rebounds as Ole Miss defeated Missouri 75-71 Saturday.

It's the 22nd career double-double for Saiz, who is the Southeastern Conference's active rebounding leader and the only player in the conference averaging a double-double at 15.2 points and 11.6 rebounds per game.

Terrence Davis had 18 points and 11 rebounds, and Deandre Burnett added 14 points, shooting 3-for-6 from 3-point ranges.

Missouri coach Kim Anderson said double-teaming Saiz was the Tigers' primary game plan.

"We did a decent job, but there were probably five times where we were late doubling him," Anderson said.
